Colorado SNAP starts distributing August food stamp benefits in just one day.
Colorado SNAP Benefits: Get Your August Payment in One Day!
Calling all Colorado residents participating in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), also known as food stamps! Exciting news awaits you. Brace yourselves for a swift and convenient delivery of your first payment for the month of August.
In the beautiful Centennial State, SNAP benefits are issued between August 1st and August 10th. The exact payment date, however, depends on the last digit of your Social Security number. Let’s dive into the details!
Payment Dates Based on Social Security Number
- If your SSN ends in 1, your SNAP benefits will be available on the first of the month.
- If your SSN ends in 0, payments will be allotted on the 10th of the month.
Now, let’s talk about the amount of SNAP benefits you can expect. The calculation takes into account various factors, including household size and income (both earned and unearned).
- For an individual, the maximum monthly payment is $281.
- A four-person family can receive up to $939.
- For a household of eight, the maximum payment reaches an impressive $1,691.
- And for each additional member beyond eight, the program adds a maximum of $211.
But wait, there’s more! The program issues your monthly benefits on an electronic benefit transfer card. This card can be used at qualifying stores to purchase a wide range of eligible grocery items, including bread, dairy products, meat and poultry, and refreshing beverages. However, please note that pet food, alcohol, soap, and paper products are ineligible for purchase.
If you’re interested in applying for SNAP benefits, you have multiple options at your disposal:
- Apply online using the Colorado PEAK website.
